Algiers Point

About this Cocktail

Two cocktailians came into River Bar last night, and for their second round asked for something herbal like a Green Point...or something inspired by John Gertsen. So why not both? A Cognac Sazerac mashed up with a Green Point (Sazeracs and Green Points were 2 drinks John enthusiastically made back in the day at No. 9 Park)! Named after a neighborhood in New Orleans.

Ingredients:

1 oz Cognac

1 oz Rye Whiskey

1/2 oz Punt e Mes

1/2 oz Yellow Chartreuse

3 dash Peychaud's Bitters

2 dash Orange Bitters

Herbsaint for a Rinse

Preparation:

Stir with ice, strain into an Herbsaint-rinsed old fashioned glass, and garnish with lemon oil from a twist.
